The Mirror's Tom Parry reports from Seyne les Alpes, where 150 people lost their lives after Flight 4U 9525 plunged 32,000ft into a ­mountain

“Tragic Flight 4U 9525 took eight ­terrifying minutes to plunge 32,000ft into a ­mountain, but made no mayday call.
"One local said “the jet ­disintegrated” while Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond told journalists: “It is likely there were some British on board.”
"One victim was named as Marina Bandres Lopez-Belio, 37, a Spanish mum who lived in Manchester. She died with her baby son Julian.
"Last night, Germanwings was forced to cancel several flights after crews refused to fly for what the company said were “personal reasons.”
"They confirmed that the crash plane had been grounded on Monday for an hour for repairs to be carried out.”

'No convincing case' for HS2 says Lords' report

08:32, 25 March    By Tamlyn Jones

"Cheaper options than HS2 for solving overcrowding on the railways have not been reviewed according to Lords Economic Affairs Committee."

“Commenting on the report, the committee's chairman Lord Hollick said: "At £50 billion, HS2 will be one of the most expensive infrastructure projects ever undertaken in the UK but the Government have not yet made a convincing case for why it is necessary.

 The Government has not made a convincing case for HS2.
 It must do so before Parliament passes the Bill to enable the construction of the first stage of the railway to begin. This is the conclusion of the House of Lords Economic Affairs Select Committee, in a report published today.

JMC: BRITISH IN HOUSE COMPLAINTS DEPARTMENTS

Are not providing honest solutions to people’s problems. The reasons are obvious.

The British political, legal, financial, NHS, county councils, landlords, racecourse and horseracing governments, are letting the British people down every day big time who allowed the likes of this to happen in the first place? And who has allowed this to go on for so long?

Last updated at 6:11PM, March 22 2015

"Barry Geraghty faces missing the rest of the season after suffering a hairline fracture to his left tibia in a fall at Downpatrick on Sunday.


"The 35-year-old was hurt after a crashing fall two out aboard the Edward O’Grady-trained Sailors Warn in a hurdle race.


"It was initially thought he had avoided serious injury but the fracture was last night confirmed after X-rays in a Dublin hospital. He faces up to eight weeks on the sidelines and will miss next month’s lucrative three-day Grand National meeting at Aintree.

Two-time Irish Champion jockey expects to be back in time for Punchestown

Jockey Davy Russell is expected to be back in action in time for the Punchestown festival at the end of April after breaking an elbow in a bad fall at Gowran Park.


There were initial fears that the two-time Irish champion jockey had also broken a leg after the fall from front-runner Feenakilmeedy in the Brian Cody & www.aclsurgery.ie Mares Beginners Chase.


Russell was attended to at the track before being taken to St Luke’s Accident and Emergency in Kilkenny for treatment.


Turf Club chief medical officer Dr Adrian McGoldrick told the Racing Post: “Davy has fractured his ulna [elbow]and will have surgery on Monday. He will be out of action for four to six weeks, but should be back in time for the Punchestown festival at the end of next month.”


Russell later tweeted: “Thanks for all the kind messages not as bad as first feared”.

Shuilamach was also brought down in the incident while Shaunas Dream was another to come to grief at the same obstacle.

Clerk of the course Paddy Graffin said: “Basically it was Davy who brought down the other horse (Shuilamach) and he took the full brunt of a horse travelling at over 30 miles an hour.
JMC: Mares Beginners Chase. In all these types of races Novice and Chase Beginners Races these racehorses all have so much to learn about racing over these big chase fences, at racing pace, with many other racehorse competitors all around them learning same. Government regulators don't bother to take account of any of these highly dangerous key facts. Government not fit for purpose, out of touch with the true and highly dangerous reality of partnering a novice racehorse in a novice beginners chase.
